Hi All, i just joined the association, actually i must confess i was a member many years ago for a while, but life got in the way.
Back in 84 i salvaged an old SE Saunders Consuta system launch out of the mud of Benfleet creek, in terrible condition she had been in derelict sinking condition for 40 years. She is 27' 6" long x 5' 8" beam
A protracted rebuild was started & the hull eventually replanked. Then our son came along & a big house extension. Im happy to say that after a rather long lay off im back on the case!
Earlier this week i was lucky enough to pick up a Gaines universal straight six sidevalve engine for her.
More on the project later!
